On the Mechanistic Origins of Toughness in Bone
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the structure and properties of bone, focusing on mechanical deformation and fracture behavior from the perspective of the multidimensional hierarchical nature of its structure and derive its resistance to fracture with a multitude of deformation mechanisms at many size scales ranging from the nanoscale structure of protein molecules to the macroscopic physiological scale.

A new constitutive framework for arterial wall mechanics and a comparative study of material models
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a constitutive law for the description of the (passive) mechanical response of arterial tissue, where the artery is modeled as a thick-walled nonlinearly elastic circular cylindrical tube consisting of two layers corresponding to the media and adventitia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties and the hierarchical structure of bone
TL;DR: Further investigations of mechanical properties at the "materials level", in addition to the studies at the 'structural level' are needed to fill the gap in present knowledge and to achieve a complete understanding of the mechanical properties of bone.
Journal ArticleDOI
The conflicts between strength and toughness
TL;DR: This work focuses on the interplay between the mechanisms that individually contribute to strength and toughness, noting that these phenomena can originate from very different lengthscales in a material's structural architecture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperelastic modelling of arterial layers with distributed collagen fibre orientations
TL;DR: A structural continuum framework that is able to represent the dispersion of the collagen fibre orientation is developed and allows the development of a new hyperelastic free-energy function that is particularly suited for representing the anisotropic elastic properties of adventitial and intimal layers of arterial walls.
Journal ArticleDOI
The elastic and ultimate properties of compact bone tissue
TL;DR: The use of a tranversely isotropic model is tested for the elastic behavior of bovine and human bone and the five independent constants of this model are determined.
